Turn billing approval comments into invoice action
When the billing decision lands in a Linear comment, Notis can use the conversation and issue context to create the invoice in Finmei.
Trigger
Public Team Comment Created
Fires when a new comment is posted on a *public-team* Linear issue. For private teams (lock icon in Linear's sidebar) use `LINEAR_PRIVATE_TEAM_COMMENT_CREATED`.
Action
Create Invoice
Tool to create a new invoice. Use when you have all invoice details ready and need to record it. Example: "Create an invoice for customer X with two items.
Why this helps
Approvals buried in issue discussions can be hard to remember when it is time to prepare the invoice.
- Keep approval and invoice action close together.
- Reduce scanning and revisiting comment threads.
- Require a clear approval and sufficient invoice details.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Linear and Finmei to Notis once using the portal.
- 2Create the automation in the portal or ask Notis conversationally.
- 3Use one plain-language instruction to create a Finmei invoice when a new Linear comment clearly approves billing and the issue provides complete invoice details.
- 4Select the Linear Comment Received trigger and choose where run reports should appear.
- 5Test with one genuine approval comment on a billable issue.
Questions about this workflow
Will any comment on the issue trigger an invoice?
The instruction should require explicit billing approval in the comment and enough details in the issue.
What if the comment is ambiguous?
Tell Notis to ask you for clarification instead of treating an unclear comment as approval.
